Well, yeah. Its pretty well established that there is fairly limited resources in open source. Loads of software engineers, very few contributors.

Maybe because of projects that aren't interested in the opinions of distro maintainers, let alone individual contributors.

We can try to lower the barrier of entry. But nowadays open source maintainers have to actually limit controbutions due to a significant increase in supply chain attacks and generally untrustworthy code contributions.
